IInterstellar molecules containing N atoms, such as ammonia (NH3) and methylamine (CH3NH2), could be potential precursors of amino acids like the simplest one, glycine (NH2CH2COOH). The gas-phase reactivity of these N-bearing species with OH radicals, ubiquitous in the interstellar medium, is not known at temperatures of cold dark molecular clouds. In this work, we present the first kinetic study of these OH-reactions at around 22 K and different gas densities ((3.4-16.7)×1016 cm-3) in helium. The obtained rate coefficients, with ±2 uncertainties, k1(OH+NH3) = (2.7±0.1)×10-11 cm3 s-1 k2(OH+CH3NH2) = (3.9±0.1)×10-10 cm3 s-1 can be included in pure gas-phase or gas-grain astrochemical models to interpret the observed abundances of NH3 and ...
